The
period piece drama Outlander continues on Blu-ray disc with
the extensive Season Two. Following the French couple Jamie
(a Scottish warrior) and Claire Randall (a 1945 combat nurse who was
in the last season sent back to the year 1743) - both of which have
the intention of infiltrating the Jacobrite rebellion which is led by
Prince Charles Stuart. This season ups the ante with superb
production values and costume design. even if it does get a little
soap opera-ish along the way. Heavy on politics, romance, some time
traveling, and the preservation of the Scotts - this season will
attract some and repel others.

13
episodes span 5 Blu-ray disc with the following: Through a Glass
Darkly, Not in Scotland Anymore, Useful Occupations and Deception, La
Dame Blanche, Untimely Resurrection, Best Laid Schemes, Faith, The
Fox's Lair, Je Suis Prest, Prestonpans, Vengeance is Mine, The Hail
Mary, and the season finale Dragonfly in Amber.

Presented
in 1080p high definition with a widescreen aspect ratio of 1.78:1,
these episodes are gorgeous to watch on Blu-ray disc with rich and
saturated colors that bring out the production design and costuming
in sharp detail. The audio is mixed in lossless DTS-HD MA (Mastetr
Audio) 5.1 that brings the show to life even better than it looked
and sounded upon its initial broadcast. If you're a fan of the show,
then this is definitely the way you want to experience it. A Digital
Copy is also included.

If
you like historical romances and are looking for a new show to check
out, then Outlander may be up your alley. Be sure to watch Season
One first, however (reviewed in two parts elsewhere on this
site), or you may be a bit lost in the plot.
